The Game We Play As We Die



Inside of me lies a Demon oh so strong
Able to conquer pains long gone
Inside my flesh lies an Angel 
Oh so mythical
Created by me oh so long ago
Inside me lies Human Muscle
Often overshadowed by ego or confusion 
My life is like a long driving trip
To nowhere yet it's so damn far away
What unexplained things will I see today
So much curiosity and monotony 
So much change and newness 
I complain about all that I love
I love all that bothers me
I could change it all with a thought
About what?
About words used in a fight for my life
A battle with time and thoughts
I dance with the sun and the moon
Why am I not very amused
Is this joy and contentment  
Is this peace
I feel so still like a dream
My hands are gentle as I brush the canvas
But for what
 Another trip around this Sun 
We try to change the day by changing our clothes 
By making new sounds
But is today tomorrow and yesterday still somehow
This is the game we play as we die
We pretend it's brand new 
And we just found out somehow
Inside my heart is a dying child
In my eyes a RiOt
Just dying to get out.
